Like no other practitioner in the field today, psychiatrist Dan Siegel has given therapists a fuller grasp of the social nature of the brain and its self-regulating processes, along with a new understanding of how psychotherapy actually works. Known for his landmark work, The Developing Mind: How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape Who We Are, and one of the field's most popular teachers, Siegel has a flair for translating the esoterica of neuroscience into practical concepts that deepen the impact of the therapeutic relationship and clarify how change happens. As attachment researcher Alan Schore has put it, "Even if you're listening to him in a large audience, you have the sense that Dan is speaking directly to you."
